Happy Birthday, Rachele!
This is such a generous giveaway. It would be so fun to get a portrait!
I'm enjoying reading all your Birthday Blog Party posts! I really like seeing your artwork on your blog. It's so charming and unique.
I like the fact I feel like you are an old friend and yet I have never met you. You inspire me to be more positive about who I am. Elyse (elysechatt@gmail.com)

I enjoy, or rather appreciate most your FA posts. Because of your blog, I was introduced to FA and finally overcame a lifetime of, well, not feeling okay in my own body. I will forever be grateful. If I won, though a blog re-do would be tempting, I'd choose the portrait. We'll need some family artwork for our new apartment. :) Good luck to everyone.

Tweeted your fantastic giveaway!! Yay this would be so very awesome.
Love this! (I want a portrait).
I love seeing your art works the most.
I just recently discovered your blog, but I like your fatshionista posts so far. I love seeing other people's individual style! Plus you look great with short hair and glasses - two things I want to look great with (I'm going to need glasses soon, and I just don't know if I'd like how I'd look w/ super-short hair)
I've been a follower for a couple months, and I love seeing all your fantastic drawings. They're always so cute and creative. When I read your blog, it's definitely a pick-me-up!
I love the idea of this giveaway as I'm a huge fan of your art, but I also really love seeing your outfit posts. (you've got cute style)
I liked the Facebook page!
You always have the best ideas for giveaways! Cute and quirky!
I thought that I had left a previous comment, but I suppose I hadn't...Happy Birthday, Rachele! I hope that it's as fantastic as you are :) I'm definitely enjoying this blog party! Maybe, when I hit 1,000 followers on my blog, I'll do the same.
Following your blog!
